Default Re: Sentry command

Note that if you have "Clear Orders On Enemy Presence" option set, your Star destroyer will clear the "Destroy Star" order when enemy ships are sighted. So nothing will blow up or get turned into a black hole. I have not tested this, but expect it to work like this.

A bit more on fleet sentrys. Be sure to clear all orders before setting a fleet to sentry after moving ships in and out of it. If ships are on sentry in the fleet and more ships are added the new ones will not be at sentry. They may not show on the top level screen and that could cause confusion. this may be what is causing the cycle button to be off.

Cycle ships works fine by skipping sentries. Cycle fleets does not skip sentried ships even when all in a fleet are sentried. Maybe it was meant to be this way.

When we choose a fleet to sentry it should sentry the fleet and skip it during fleet cycle.
